“I love him who labors and invents, that he may build the house for the Superman, and prepare for him earth, animal, and plant: for thus seeks he his own down-going.” ― Friedrich Nietzsche, Thus Spoke Zarathustra Nietzche sees Christianity and its moral laws, as what is given to that part of our society which serves the Superclass of men who rule. He has simply re-stated the justice of the strong, a concept of justice for those who know the path forward, and make it their will at any cost, certainly not how the Equal Justice of a Democracy should work.

Religions provide moral and ethical frameworks, this is our algorithm or set of instructions which has made our Western civilization behave as it has throughout history, it has both ruled us and failed us for many years. While philosophy and science have moved ahead, religion is dogmatic and changes slowly, this has left us with a belief that is better suited for the Middle Ages and is no longer appropriate for our current society. In the 19th century we began to recognize this fact, as was notably pointed out by Friedrich Nietzsche. "God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. How shall we, murderers of all murderers, console ourselves? — . Nietzsche speaks to the fact that the "Age of Enlightenment'' began an erosion of our belief, and that society's view of the existence of God had become unreasonable. The old dogma had been proven false, and now found itself unable to stand against modern thought. b-1-5- 402
